hey fellas i have exactly the same problem with the exact same kit. i have been advised that you can get screw in nipples for the new piping. this is what i plan to do. also putting a t piece in the vacuum line between the stock bypass gasket and the inlet manifold. another quetion, did you guys have to trim your fan blades to make the crossover piping fit? this seems F*%king stupid because the fan is a crucial part of the engine and is perfectly balanced and cutting it would cause shuttering and the water pump to crapp itself?

anyway what you guys do? r33 II

If you gonna use the piping kit as it is then you have got no choice but to trim the fan. Agree its a very dumb idea coz Hybrid just make the kits for generic application not car model specific. Any way when I got my kit installed was advised not to trim too much of ther fan but rather had the pipe raised with a longer silicon hose on the left and a small bar to hol the top pipe mount on the engine. Still need to trim just a little bit off the fan. Well, I guess what you pay is what you get . . .

      Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.

      Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old

      Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.

      I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
